Poem
In the case of life Love turns from plaintiff to defendant Justice the judge, is impartial throughout the hearing Love left to plea for it’s mere existence Justice in the process of rearing the ugly verdict You called upon Wisdom, says Justice Which you considered to be your greatest ally However Wisdom proved to be your downfall Because Wisdom does not reside with you In fact Folly is your greatest ally You , Love, Called upon compassion Compassion could not offer you solace You had received all Compassion could give You gave it away at every chance Love, you then blamed betrayal for your failings Betrayal proved that also it was never in your way Moreover it was working in your interest at every turn Only hiding it’s motives to protect your constituents Justice says, I must say you are the greatest charity worker You work in the interest of no one and in the interest of everyone Your logic is error and your error is logic A true contradiction of yourself You live on a path between Triumph and Tragedy Taking either route as you go through Time You say Happiness is your goal You say that Hope will lead you there Have in Time, Hope can prove true or false Then you claim you then are the goal in yourself But you have already proved to be a contradiction What then can be said about you Love I say you make the greatest case, with the least evidence There is your virtue and your vice
